Whole-system duct and dryer vent check with before-and-after photos - you see exactly what came out of your vents
That "$99 whole-house special" is a bait ad - the real number appears once they are in your hallway, or the "clean" is a shop-vac at the register. We photograph the inside of your ducts before and after instead.

AfterFast, Reliable Air Duct Cleaning Across Southlake
Air duct cleaning in Southlake, TX typically runs $450-$1,200 for residential systems depending on home size and HVAC count, with most full-system jobs completed in one day. CleanRun crews coordinate dispatch from our Dallas-Fort Worth office and arrive in Southlake with Rotobrush and Nikro negative-pressure equipment sized for the large custom homes that define this market. Call (817) 520-8797 for a written estimate before any work starts.
We’ve been driving to Southlake since 2013, and by now we know the difference between a 1995 Timarron build and a 2007 Coventry Manor job before we pull onto the driveway. The homes here aren’t standard. Three, sometimes four air handlers. Forty to sixty registers. Flex-duct runs stretching across vaulted ceilings that haven’t been touched in fifteen or twenty years. That scale changes everything about how you quote, how you clean, and what you document.
Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Fort Worth Is Southlake’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
Our reputation in Southlake was built on one practice that still separates us from every coupon competitor: we photograph the inside of every duct run before we touch it, and again when we’re done. Homeowners here research before they call. They want evidence, not promises. The Documented Photo Record we deliver with every job - Haven Standard Clause 2 - lets them verify what was actually removed against what they were told needed removing.
Response time to Southlake is same-day scheduling when you call (817) 520-8797, with background-checked, uniformed technicians identified by name before arrival under Haven Standard Clause 3: Verified Crews. We don’t do “windows.” We give you a time, and we show up then.
Local knowledge matters because Southlake’s housing stock is genuinely different from neighboring cities. The 1988-2010 custom and semi-custom homes on Byron Nelson Boulevard, in Timarron, and throughout Carroll ISD boundaries sit on expansive black-clay soils that shift seasonally. That movement micro-separates flex-duct collars at ceiling boots - a failure mode our crews check for on every call, because we’ve found it often enough to know it’s not rare. Technicians who don’t know to look miss it. We don’t miss it.
Our Air Duct Cleaning Services in Southlake
Residential Duct Cleaning
Most Southlake residential jobs we handle are not typical. A 4,500 sq ft home near Southlake Town Square with three air handlers and 48 registers requires a fundamentally different scope than a 2,200 sq ft Keller ranch with one system. Our Air Duct Cleaning team prices per system, not per vent, because that’s the only honest way to quote a home where System A might run twelve registers through a finished basement while System B serves a second-story wing with twenty-year-old flex duct. We clean every register, every trunk line, every return - and we photograph all of it.
Commercial Duct Cleaning
Southlake’s commercial base - medical offices along Kimball Avenue, retail at Park Village, professional suites near SH 114 - runs smaller-footprint systems than our residential work but often on tighter maintenance schedules. We handle these with the same per-system written pricing and photo documentation, using Abatement Technologies HEPA equipment sized for occupied spaces. No disruption theater, no after-hours surcharges. Just a written scope, a written price, and a photo record when we’re done.
Supply Duct Cleaning
The supply side is where Southlake homeowners notice problems first: dust reappearing on furniture within days of cleaning, uneven airflow to distant bedrooms, or that fine black-clay film that settles on registers after windy spring days. Supply duct cleaning targets the path from your air handler to each room register, using agitation tools and negative-pressure extraction to remove debris at the source. In Southlake’s long flex-duct runs, this means more time per register and more attention to sag points where debris collects. We don’t blow air through and call it clean.
Return Duct Cleaning
Return ducts pull air back to your air handler, and in Southlake’s oversized homes they often run through wall cavities and soffits that never get inspected. A clogged return forces your system to work harder, runs up energy bills, and recirculates whatever’s in your ductwork. Our return-side cleaning includes the return grilles, the drop boxes, and the trunk lines back to the air handler - photographed before and after, with debris volume noted in writing.

BeforeAfterTrusted Brands We Service in Southlake
CleanRun crews arrive with professional-grade equipment from trade-recognized manufacturers: Rotobrush brush-and-vac systems for residential agitation, Nikro and Abatement Technologies negative-pressure machines for source removal, and Honeywell media filters and Aprilaire whole-home purifiers for homeowners who want to maintain results after cleaning. We don’t use equipment you can’t look up. Every brand we name is one you can verify independently, and we stock common replacement parts so Southlake customers aren’t waiting on a second visit for a filter swap or boot repair.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Southlake Homes
- Multi-system homes quoted as single-system jobs. A Southlake home with four air handlers and 52 registers cannot be cleaned honestly for a single-system price. Competitors who quote low know this. They clean one system, leave three untouched, and the homeowner breathes the same debris for another year.
- Flex-duct separations at ceiling boots from black-clay slab movement. Southlake’s 1990s and 2000s homes on expansive clay soils develop micro-separations that pull attic insulation into supply air. Without a camera inspection, this stays hidden behind drywall forever.
- Cedar fever pollen accumulation in oversized duct networks. Ashe juniper peaks December through February, and Southlake’s health-conscious homeowners feel it. Pollen drawn into 40-60 register systems recirculates for months, coating supply surfaces and overwhelming standard filters.
- Sagged flex-duct runs with debris-packed low points. Long runs in vaulted-ceiling homes sag over 15-20 years, creating collection points that brush-and-vac operators working too fast never touch. We run cameras to find them, then agitate and extract properly.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in Southlake, TX
Honest pricing for Southlake’s market starts with honest scope. A typical single-system residential cleaning in a standard North Texas home runs $450-$650. In Southlake, where most homes exceed 4,000 sq ft with multiple systems, per-system pricing scales accordingly:
| Service | Typical Range in Southlake |
|---|---|
| Single-system residential (1 air handler, 12-20 registers) | $450-$650 |
| Two-system residential (2 air handlers, 24-36 registers) | $850-$1,100 |
| Three-system residential (3 air handlers, 36-48 registers) | $1,200-$1,600 |
| Four-system residential (4 air handlers, 48-60+ registers) | $1,500-$2,200 |
| Video inspection and boot-separation repair (per location) | $180-$340 |
| Full-system cleaning with HEPA sanitizing | Add $200-$400 to base |
What moves a quote within these ranges: register count, accessibility of air handlers (attic vs. closet vs. basement), condition of flex-duct runs, and whether camera inspection reveals separations requiring repair before cleaning. We deliver a written price before any panel comes off - Haven Standard Clause 1 - and that price does not change unless you add scope. No per-vent arithmetic. No surprise charges when the crew finds a fourth system. Call (817) 520-8797 for a written estimate at no cost.

Each city gets the same per-system written pricing, the same camera inspection protocol, and the same Documented Photo Record - but Southlake’s unique housing stock and black-clay conditions mean our crews spend more time on pre-inspection here than anywhere else in the service area.

FAQs - Air Duct Cleaning in Southlake
A 6,000 sq ft Southlake home usually runs three or four separate HVAC systems with 40-60 registers, while a typical Keller house has one or two systems and 20-30 registers. That difference means more equipment, more crew hours, and a more complex pre-inspection in Southlake - especially when long flex-duct runs and vaulted ceilings are involved. Call (817) 520-8797 and we’ll scope your system count before quoting.
Because Southlake’s 1988-2010 custom homes on expansive black-clay soils develop micro-separations at flex-duct ceiling boots that are invisible from the register side. A camera finds these separations before work starts, so the quote includes any needed boot repair and so debris from the attic doesn’t get blown into living spaces during cleaning. Skipping this step is how uncleaned attics end up inside your ducts.
Per-system pricing means you pay for each air handler and its connected duct network as a separate scope of work, not a lump sum that might cover one system and ignore the others. A Southlake home with four systems gets four separate written prices, four separate cleaning operations, and four separate before/after photo records. You know exactly what was cleaned and what wasn’t.
Ashe juniper pollen peaks December through February in the DFW area, and Southlake’s oversized duct systems draw enormous volumes of it during those months. Cleaning in late winter or early spring removes that accumulated pollen before continuous summer cooling begins recirculating it. Many Southlake homeowners schedule in March or April for this reason, though we clean year-round.
You receive three concrete deliverables: a written scope of work showing what was cleaned, a Documented Photo Record with before/after images from inside every duct run, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing. These are standard on every job, not upgrades. If a company won’t put photos of your actual ducts in your hands, you have no proof the work happened. Call (817) 520-8797 for an estimate - documentation is included from the first visit.
